Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The European Food Safety Authority has approved many applications for UVB light treated foods (e.g. UVB-exposed button mushrooms) in the last years. The UVB light treatment is used to increase the vitamin D content in foods and improve the vitamin D status of subjects. However, UVB irradiation is accompanied by the formation of vitamin D photoisomers such as lumisterol and tachysterol. The current study aims to investigated whether these vitamin D photoisomers can enter the circulation and are metabolised in humans that consume UVB-treated mushrooms.

oral intake of UVB-exposed mushrooms

Daily intake of 500 g of UVB-exposed button mushrooms over 7 days (provided as mushroom cream soup) and blood sampling (at baseline, 3 h postprandial, 6 h postprandial and at day 8)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

UVB-exposed button mushrooms

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Healthy subjects will be randomized into two groups and received either UVB-exposed button mushrooms or non-UVB-exposed button mushrooms for 7 days. Blood samples from each subject will be taken at baseline (before the intake of the mushrooms, 3 h and 6 h thereafter, and at day 8. Three months later, another blood sample was taken.

oral intake of non-UVB-exposed mushrooms

Daily intake of 500 g of non-UVB-exposed button mushrooms over 7 days (provided as mushroom cream soup) and blood sampling (at baseline, 3 h postprandial, 6 h postprandial and at day 8)

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

UVB-exposed button mushrooms

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Healthy subjects will be randomized into two groups and received either UVB-exposed button mushrooms or non-UVB-exposed button mushrooms for 7 days. Blood samples from each subject will be taken at baseline (before the intake of the mushrooms, 3 h and 6 h thereafter, and at day 8. Three months later, another blood sample was taken.
